They were adventurers and the closest of friends--until the day Hugo Galliard deserted Edmund Renbrook in South Africa, robbing him forever of his diamonds, his woman, and his future. Now, years later, a son and daughter will meet to settle the score, using every bit of sensual cunning at their disposal... Everything She Believed.  .  . Wild, beautiful, unwilling to bend to anyone's rules, Jancie Renbrook is governed by one overwhelming desire: to make Lujan Galliard want her, marry her, and serve as the instrument of her father's revenge.

Lujan Galliard has cut quite a swath through the gambling dens and whorehouses of London. But at least he's an honest rakehell, unlike his father who masquerades as a gentleman while gazing at Jancie as if she were a ripe piece of fruit for the taking. Not that Lujan believes for a moment that the girl is an innocent come to care for his dying mother. The only way to uncover her scheme--and thwart his father--is to seduce and marry her. But a taste of what he hungers for proves more tempting than Lujan can resist...and soon, he wants Jancie body and soul... Everything Has Its Price Blinded by vengeance, trapped by uncontrollable passion, two lovers have become pawns in a dangerous game of sin and secrets, and the only way out is to surrender to a love neither is ready to trust...… (más)

My first erotic romance, so I'm probably not good at comparing it to others of the subgenre yet. It's set in regency England -- the countryside not the London ton. Good plot and fairly good suspense.

Lujan's father, Hugo, and Janice's father, Edmund, went to the South African diamond mines together. Edmund lost his memory in an explosion. After Janice is born, he starts to remember that Hugo stole the woman Edmond loved, set the explosion that almost killed him, and took the diamonds which they had dug up together. Edmund is secretly planning to use Janice to get his revenge. Meanwhile, Hugo denies having taken any diamonds but says he was kidnapped and that they took the diamonds. (Hugo's youngest son also died under mysterious circumstances.)

Instead, Janice falls in love with Lujan. Although he is interested only in sex, and not originally monogamous sex, he slowly comes to realize he is only interested in Janice. Around the same time, she decides to enjoy sex with him and disconnect her emotions. He misses her emotions, and then he realizes he loves her. They discover all the secrets both father's hid, and become a couple.

Janice's calico cat Emily is a primary character. ( )
